The only thing that matters

I can't really express

the nature of the nuture

seems to be the big test

Its such a cool life

did I expect it?

trying with all my might

im moving but where am I going?

The only kind of flattery

That seems to work on me

involves plenty of laughing

and its not mean

Its such a cruel life

with plenty of warning

just using my right side

the left is now taking me longer

I have grown much fatter

and I'm accepting it now

the only thing that matters

is seeing myself in the crowd

Its such a cool life

did I expect it?

trying with all my might

im moving but where am I going?

Your mind

can make a world full of things

can make the wind seem to sing

the magic's never too far

your mind

can make the spring ease the winter

can turn the fire to paste

papers all stick together

its not a dream

please don't say its a dream

thats just cheating

and a lazy plot device
